As a Factory Software Engineer (Starlink), you will join the Starlink team to develop software that runs on both servers and products during the manufacturing process. You will be responsible for the complete lifecycle of your code, including development, testing, and support. Your daily work involves creating infrastructure and tools for rapid deployment, designing fault-tolerant systems for long-term operation, and building systems for test execution across virtualized hardware or real hardware-in-the-loop simulations. You will also maintain factory servers and networking while participating in architecture and code reviews. The role requires proficiency in Python, Golang, C++, or Rust, along with knowledge of networking protocols, electronics, and radio frequency.
